Great win there for Dickson, and before this tournament I hadn't heard of him, so he must be a name to look out in the future then I guess
Good to see Sagoo playing a tournament, and I guess we can find out what all the fuss is about, and whether he is actually as good as we think he is
Some winnable matches for a couple of the Brits, but on the whole it isnt a great draw, as getting more than 4 players through (Baker, Goodall, and the 2 all British matches) would be a bit of a surprise.
